Juvederm Volbella Offers Subtle, Natural Looking Lip Enhancement

As of October 2016, there is a new way to get gorgeous lips. This summer, the FDA approved Allergan’s injectable dermal filler, Juvederm Volbella to smooth lines in the lips and around the mouth for a subtly enhanced pout. While Volbella is the newest addition to Juvederm’s product list in the U.S., it is not the new kid on the block. 70 countries use Volbella, with Europe being the first to approve its use in 2011.

For those looking to define or smooth their lips, but don’t want to add volume or fear unnatural looking results, Volbella is a great option. Volbella contains Allergan’s proprietary filler technology, Vycross, which is a blend of different molecular weights of hyaluronic acid that produce long lasting results, with a majority of patients reporting improvements lasting a year.

What makes Volbella unique is that it is formulated with a lower HA concentration than its predecessor Juvederm Voluma, which makes it a softer, smoother gel that is appropriate for adding subtle volume to the lips for a more natural looking result. Since it is a thinner gel, it is easier to inject and precisely control the spread of the filler when filling out wrinkles and fine lines in the lips and around the mouth, making it a great option for those that want to enhance the definition of their lips without adding substantial volume.

As with any injectable product, the key to getting optimal results is getting your injection administered by a highly experienced professional. The nurse injectors at Dr. Shapiro’s Skin Klinic have decades of experience and are truly masters of the art of injectables.

Practice Policy Update Regarding COVID-19

Dear Patients,

It is with great pleasure that I announce the reopening of my practice for both surgical and non-surgical services on May 1, 2020. As per the governor Ducey's executive order on April 22, 2020, elective surgery has been allowed to proceed, with appropriate precautions taken by health care professionals to ensure continued vigilance against the spread of Covid-19.

Our office staff and the staff of Paradise Valley Cosmetic Surgery Center and Surgical Recovery Center have proactively taken necessary precautions to meet strict criterion for health providers according to the state of Arizona. These include necessary patient screening for Covid-19, strict protocols for cleaning offices and treatment rooms, adequate PPE, and continued social distancing. As before, waiting areas will have minimal capacity, and friends and family members should not accompany one into offices or treatment areas.

With great anticipation we welcome you back to the practice, and wish you all continued health and safety.
